A female athlete who took testosterone-like steroids for several months stopped having normal menstrual cycles. What is the best explanation for this observation?

#Unit 7. System Physiology – Animal
  1. Testosterone stimulates inhibin production from the corpus luteum
  2. Testosterone binds to receptors in the endometrium, resulting in the endometrium’s failure to develop during the normal cycle
  3. Testosterone binds to receptors in the anterior pituitary that stimulate the secretion of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH)
  4. Testosterone inhibits the hypothalamic secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone and the pituitary secretion of LH and FSH

#Unit 3. Fundamental Processes

A. For processive DNA synthesis, proofreading occurs without releasing the DNA from the polymerase
B. When a mismatched base pair is present in the polymerase active site, the primer:template junction is destabilize
C. The DNA polymerase active site binds such a mismatched template poorly, but the exonuclease active site has a 10-fold higher affinity.
D. The incorrect nucleotide is removed by the 5’-3’-exonuclease nuclease activity
